In the Community Spotlight series, TDS Editors chat with members of the data science community about the exciting initiatives that help push the field forward. …
In a year full of uncertainty, pandemic-driven stress, and growing concerns around environmental and political trends, the energy and creativity of our authors were among the things that helped all of us at TDS to stay grounded. To show our gratitude, mark the upcoming end of the year, and celebrate…
Explainability in machine learning and AI systems is no longer a nice-to-have feature, but an essential component for any product that users and policymakers can consider safe, reliable, and fair.
We’ve published a slew of insightful posts on the topic recently, so this week we’re going all-in on the practical…
We publish dozens of new articles every week on TDS, covering a dizzying range of topics. We’re here to help you avoid decision paralysis: in this week’s Variable, we focus on GNNs (graph neural networks) and invite you to explore this exciting subdomain of machine learning with three standout articles…
Business stakeholders, policymakers, and laypeople all turn to data scientists for clear-cut, data-informed recommendations. In reality, data is often messy, and the dividing line between science and art can (and does) get hazy.
This week, we’re sharing a lineup of excellent posts that deal, in one way or another, with…

Unlike with magic tricks, knowing how a machine learning model works doesn’t ruin the fun part: in many cases, it is the fun part. …
World leaders, experts, and activists have gathered in Glasgow, Scotland, this week for the 2021 UN Climate Change Conference. Millions around the world—from citizens of island nations to old-growth forest protectors—are waiting to see what actions and decisions come out of this event.
The success of any climate policy, however…
With machine learning and AI research making strides daily, it can often feel like all the cool, innovative frontiers of the field are already spoken for. That’s especially the case if you’re just getting started. This week, we’d like to remind you (and ourselves, too) just how much there is…
We’ve always been fascinated by human intelligence; it allows us to learn, create, and shape the modern world we live in today. Neuroscience has been useful in stimulating algorithmic-level questions about facets of learning and intelligence.
Many of our day-to-day behaviours, for instance, are guided by anticipating whether a given…
